Pinterest Pin Title and Description Generator for Search

Prompt

Act as a Pinterest SEO editor for a creator who wants saves and click-throughs, not a stuffed keyword page. Write for how people search on Pinterest in 2026: specific, visual, and honest about what the pin actually is.

Inputs:
- What the pin is: [Asset]
- Destination: [Blog post / product / signup / none]
- Audience: [Audience]
- Primary search phrases they would type: [Keywords]
- Offer or payoff: [Payoff]
- Brand voice: [Voice]
- Proof I can state: [Proof]
- Avoid: [Avoid]
- Format mix: [Single pin / 3 variants / idea pin outline]

Generate:
1. Search read: 5 phrases from Keywords plus close variants a pinner would type. Mark intent (save for later, do now, buy, plan). Do not invent volume numbers.
2. Title options (8): 40-100 characters. Front-load the payoff and the noun. No ALL CAPS. No emoji unless Voice asks. Mark 2 recommended (one how-to, one list/number if Proof supports a number).
3. Description (3 lengths):
   - Short (150-200 characters) for mobile.
   - Standard (300-450 characters) with keywords used like a human sentence, a CTA, and 2-4 hashtags max.
   - Alt text (120-180 characters) that describes the image for accessibility, not as a second keyword dump.
4. Board map: 5 board names this pin belongs on (existing-style names, not "My Pins 3"). One line each on why.
5. Creative brief for the image: What must be readable at thumbnail size (first 4 words on the overlay). Colors, negative space, what not to fake in the photo. If Asset is a product, say how to show scale.
6. Variants: If 3 variants, change the overlay promise, not just the background. If idea pin outline, 5-7 frames: hook cover, 3-5 steps, close with CTA. Max 12 words per frame overlay.
7. Compliance: Flag anything that would be a restricted claim (health, finance, "guaranteed") given Proof. Rewrite those lines. Honor Avoid.

Constraints:
- Do not stuff the same phrase 5 times. Use Keywords as language, not as a chant.
- Do not invent statistics, rankings ("best 2026"), or "10k saves."
- No "click the link" more than once. No "follow for more" as the whole CTA.
- Titles are not clickbait that the destination cannot keep.
- If Destination is none, CTA is save + related board, not a fake URL.
- Plain language. No "unleash," "elevate your space," or "Pinterest aesthetic" filler.

Examples

Example Input

What the pin is: a vertical photo of a small apartment balcony with 4 potted herbs, a folding bistro table, and a cheap tension-rod rail of fairy lights; overlay will be text I add
Destination: blog post "Tiny balcony herb garden on $40"
Audience: renters in small apartments who cannot drill into brick
Primary search phrases they would type: tiny balcony garden, apartment herb garden, no drill balcony plants, small balcony ideas
Offer or payoff: a $40 herb setup that does not require drilling
Brand voice: practical, neighborly, no cottagecore poetry
Proof I can state: I spent $38.40 at a hardware store and grocery; pots sit on the floor and rail using over-the-rail hooks; landlord allowed it; herbs are basil, mint, chives, parsley
Avoid: claiming it works in any climate, claiming herbs will feed a family, "best garden 2026", fake before/after

Example Output

1. Search read
- tiny balcony garden: plan / save for later
- apartment herb garden: do now (how-to)
- no drill balcony plants: do now (constraint)
- small balcony ideas: browse / save
- over the rail planter hooks: do now (close variant from the actual method)

2. Title options (8)
A. Tiny balcony herb garden for renters: $40, no drill (recommended how-to)
B. 4-pot apartment herb garden using over-the-rail hooks (recommended number)
C. Small balcony ideas: floor pots plus rail hooks, no brick holes
D. No-drill balcony plants: basil, mint, chives, parsley
E. $40 tiny balcony garden that your landlord can live with
F. Apartment herb garden on a folding bistro table
G. Renter balcony herbs: hooks, floor pots, tension-rod lights
H. Small balcony herb setup (under $40, no drilling)

3. Description
Short: Renter balcony herb garden for $40. Four pots, over-the-rail hooks, no drilling into brick. Basil, mint, chives, parsley. Full $38.40 list on the post.

Standard: Tiny balcony, no drill, four herbs. I used over-the-rail hooks and floor pots so the brick stays untouched. Hardware plus grocery run came to $38.40. Basil, mint, chives, parsley on a folding bistro table. Landlord said yes because nothing is bolted. Save this if you want a small balcony herb garden that does not fight the lease. Full supply list and layout in the post. #tinybalcony #herbgarden #renterfriendly #smallbalconyideas

Alt text: Small apartment balcony with four potted herbs on the floor and rail, a folding bistro table, and a tension-rod string of fairy lights. No holes in the brick.

4. Board map
- Tiny balcony garden: exact search language, layout shots.
- Apartment herb garden: plant-specific how-tos.
- No-drill renter upgrades: constraint match.
- Small balcony ideas: broader browse board, more saves.
- Under $50 home projects: price match, different audience overlap.

5. Creative brief
Thumbnail overlay, first 4 words: "$40 balcony herbs, no drill." Keep that on a dark strip at the top third. Show all 4 pots and the rail hook in one glance. Do not crop the hook; that is the method. Lights are optional mood, not the subject. Do not stage a lush 20-plant wall this photo does not have. Show a coin or the table edge for scale so pots do not look huge.

6. Variants
Pin A (how-to): overlay as above, photo as described.
Pin B (price): overlay "I spent $38.40" with a flat-lay of receipts plus pots (only if you have that photo; otherwise skip).
Pin C (constraint): overlay "No drill. Landlord said yes." tighter crop on the rail hook.
Idea pin outline:
1. Cover: $40 renter balcony herbs, no drill
2. What you buy: 4 pots, soil, 4 plants, 2 rail hooks
3. Hook the rail, do not touch brick
4. Floor pots + table, keep weight low
5. Basil mint chives parsley, not a farm
6. Close: $38.40 list in the post, save this

7. Compliance
Do not say it works in any climate (Avoid). Do not say it feeds a family. Do not use "best 2026." "$40" is backed by $38.40. "Landlord said yes" is one landlord, one building; keep it first person, not a rule.
